Following Route 66 to downtown Tulsa
Home to a half-mile stretch of the famed Route 66, Terrace Drive leads to a slice of midtown Tulsa. As the Oklahoma city expanded to the south during the early and mid-20th century, neighborhoods like this began adding to its story. “Terrace Drive is one of the older pockets of Tulsa,” says Chris Zinn, owner and broker at Engel & V?lkers. Being within walking distance of the shops and restaurants on Cherry Street and two miles of downtown, the neighborhood keeps its fingers on the pulse of the city.
Terrace Drive is conveniently located near downtown Tulsa, Cherry Street and Utica Square.
New Route 66 signage has popped up all over 11th Street in Terrace Drive.

Historic condos, bungalows and estates
Most of the homes in Terrace Drive date to the 1920s, when builders began to see the potential in the area. “You’ve got a mix of large estates with little bungalows and some historic condo developments,” Zinn says. Lot sizes measure about a quarter-acre on average, and many properties include paved driveways. A lot of people still park on the street, though, so the paved sidewalks are handy for pedestrians and dog walkers. Because this is an older neighborhood, there’s plenty of mature tree growth for shade and privacy. Buyers can expect to spend between $200,000 and $375,000 for a house in this area.
In addition to single family housing, Terrace Drive also has condos and apartments.
Small cottages and bungalows as well as large estates can be found in Terrace Drive.
